The Universe= Boltzmann Brain?

"S=KlogW" BoltzmannLudwig Bolzmann brought about a deep understanding of entropy to physics. The flow of entropy is said to be due to just mere statistics! Due to the insight we understand that entropy of a system increases due to the fact that high entropy state is more likely to occur than the former. So as the presumably blind particles do their trial and error in finding for how to rearange themselves, they will tend to occupy a state that is more likely to be found in at a latter time; higher entropy.This picture of entropy at once creats unsurmountable problem. If the low entropy is an highly unlikely state, why was universe in such a state to begine with? There is no clear answer as to why entropy should be low in the past.In a state of maximum entropy, which is thermodynamic equilibrium, we donot realy have a true heat death. This is because Boltzmann does not make it impossible for entropy to reduce. It makes it astonishingly unlikely. A system (such as ocean) that is in thermodynamic equilibrium is never dead. It keeps boiling, spinning, dancing etc. It is a state of maximum chaos. These random eruptions is termed 'thermal fluctuations'. The zero point energy said to be in vacuume is in such a state. In the latter, we term it quantum fluctuation.Boltzmann reasoned that in a chaotic system, all manner of rearangements would eventually be acheived. If nothing forbids, it will happen! It is only a matter of time before anything can pop out from the ocean! In the extreem case, nothing will stop a brain from randomly poping. It isn't impossible. It is just unlikely! But given an infinit time, it approaches certainity that it would pop out!BOLTZMANN BRAINBoltzmann brain is a nightmare for many cosmologists. They try much to see how to avoid such a fate but they can't find a way out. The terror of gods can never escape from science. If we are here due to chances, then chances is god! Boltzmann man brain paradox clearly demonstrate that if you opt to explain everything by chances due to fear of demons, gods, angels etc, then you are a fool! A LITTERAL seven headed mounster that can erupt by pure chances in the quantum sea will serve as equal harm as any other devil! Quantum sea is just a sleeping anything!! Chances are not save either!Boltzmann thought that the universe, from broader perspective, is in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium already. So this view does away with the nagging problem as to why the entropy in the past was low. So as the sea was violently churning up and down, voila! Order was born from chaos. (btw see Daniel 7:2-3). Pop! The universe come. The obvious nagging question is why the universe and not something else. Apparently, this never stop to bother Boltzmann. It seems more probable for a brain to emerge from the soup than the entire universe. This brain would be dreaming of the entire universe. That is a Bolzmann brain.PROBLEM WITH BOLTZMANN BRAIN IDEAThe idea that we are a Boltzmann brain floating in the mid air and dreaming about the universe is problematic in one way. The very ideas of thermodynamics are gotten by observing the very same univers we are wishing to dismiss it as an illusion. If all the knowledge and the memory is false, then it must include the knowledge of thermodynamics. If the knowledge of thermodynamics is false, then the idea of Boltzmann brain must be also false because it is infered from thermodynamics. The idea is infact a paradox.It is not clear why Boltzmann, if he could think to this far, still artribute the cause of awareness to the brain. Brain is part of the universe which should be seen as an illusion too. If the brain is an illusion, we can't claim to realy know the cause of consciousness. If brain is an illusion, then we can't use the dream analogy to understand anything at all because the idea of a dream comes from the idea that the brain can creat a virtual reality. The 'virtual' vs 'real' is a dichotomy that can't get to make sense without the idea of a brain as in virtual=creation by the brain. If the brain is illusion, the idea that we are dreaming must be false!!One other problem is that perharps biology is too complicated for the simple mind of a physicist. There is a sharp difference between a dream and what we may term it as an experience in a realm. Indead there must be a difference. If there was no such difference, we might not have coined this term 'dream' at all. We would have simply talk of visiting some other realm. But the dream is fleating. It isn't a surprise because it is due to a volatile memory. If the brain can house such an imence data as to constitute a universe, including new daily discoveries, then we are smarter than we think! The only data bank that can house such a huge memory is the universe itself! So it defeats the original claim that the universe is more complex than the brain! What was the purpose of the entire drivel which aimed at saying that the brain is more likely to pop due to chances?MERIT OF BOLTZMANN BRAINSLike I have hinted, the idea of a Boltzmann brain makes sense only if the entire universe itself is a Boltzmann brain! But I don't beleive that this is so. I beleive that it will become so in future. It will not pop out surreptitiously like Boltzmann thought. It will evolve. We will then not be necesarily dreaming of this univers. We will dream of all the paradises we want! The paradises won't be volatile nor will we be solitary in the dream. Within the dream, we can communicate telepathicaly sinse we share a huge brain! Such a dream will be like a real experience for all relevant purposes.With this in mind, lets see if a dream is realy equivalent to reality. In quantum field theory, we have come to learn that what we think of them as isolate particles are infact pulses in a quantum field! One can also see that as we dream, what we are seeing in the dream is just a pulse in our neurons! So infact it makes lots of sense to say that the entire universe is a Boltzmann brain that is dreaming of a realm. As long as you think of the universe itself as to be dreaming, and not your own tiny brain, then it makes perfect sense. You are able to experience the dream of the universe simply because you are part of the cosmic Boltzmann brain.PROBLEMS WITH BILIARD BALL REASONINGStill Boltzmann was artributing everything to blind jiggling balls. So everything is under the mercy of chances. When a physicist talk of heat, what he have in mind is some entities that are in a blind, pointless dance. We tend to think of heat as chaotic stuff that can possibly creat only disorder. But is this realy so? Let us consider a diamond. When you ask of what converts sout to diamond, then it will be the very heat! Why would randomly moving particles ends up spitting out such exellently ordered crystals? The answer is simple, 'chaos' is a term we throw in when we have no better explanation! It reffers to not what we know but what we don't know. Such equations as S=KlogW are just a way of quantifying ignorance concerning what is actually going on. If a dragon pops out of the chaotic soup, it may be more prudent to admit that we don't know what went on than to hail 'chances'! Or 'chaos'! If you are to see the works of Paul Dirac, you might only see chaose till you understand the math! Boltzmann also assumed that distant particles don't interact in some way. He had in mind some sureal billiard ball entirely seperated from each other. These billiard balls can but only knock each other. But we know that particles also pull each other even over distance. If there is no such a thing as 'ideal gas' that Boltzmann was talking of but a physicist would always excuse himself by talking of forces, then what does Boltzmann's entropy got to do with reality?Perharps you may think that existence of such things as diamond is easy; the forces are symmetric. You are totally mistaken! 'Symmetry' is the question, not the answere. It merely kicks the ball somewhere else. Physicists now know that particles do decay. Things are not the way they are out of any necessity. There is a deep reason. It involves planck's constant and fine structure constants.

  • THE FOURTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS:

    Energy can be felt by a conscious being.

    This isn't deducable from the four laws of thermodynamics. It must be treated as a law on its own!

    To understand heat, you realy need no thermometer as you have be fooled by Lord Kevin. Just deep your hand in water. Though you cannot tell 'how much' heat there is in the body, you can accurately tell that the water is as hot as the sun! There is no how much a thing ever is. A measure of a thing is an 100 man made criteria. Thermometers donnot tell us how hot a thing is. Your thermometre just tell you what a thermometre from Paris would have indicated, nothing more!! Thermometre is just usefull in telling you that the water is as hot as the fire, of which you can IN PRINCIPLE tell by carefully learning how to sense temperature using your skin. If anything, you can also misread the thermometre. To be good in measuring, you still training even if you are using a thermometre.

    With this, lets now understand thermobiodynamics AS PHYSICS not as biology!

    The hotter a thing is, the faster it vibrates.

    You are caution not to attempt to REDUCE heat to the vibration. They are related by law. The law is time riversable:

    The faster a thing vibrates the hotter it gets.

    Hotness is as much a property of an object as vibration. None is REDUCABLE to the other.
  • Amazing this universe....

  • A realy good example is fine structure constant. Know and understand that given positively charged neclei and electrons, atoms does not just automatically follow like husbands and wifes. This is not far from saying that to form a bycicle, all we need is just spokes and rims. Then we waite there for wind to blow and voila! Our bicycle assembles spontaneously!

    Things are far trikier than that. Electrons do dart around randomly and they have lots of kinetic energy. If they move little bit faster, they will fly away from the nuclei like bullets emanating from a machine gun. If they move little bit slowlier, the attractive force from the nuclea will soon collups the atom into something worse, perharps a blackhole! Fine structure constant is the wonder that says; "let the electrons move at just the right speed to form atoms!"

    Ok, the details go this way; in the vicinity of an atom are forces acting from all over the place. This is due to the zero point energy from 'empty space'. These would toss the electron away. But something amazing happens; the speed of light, charge and Planck's constant have just the precise values neaded to balance with the energy in vacuum!

    It is like just launching a planet around the sun. We leave doing our daily tasks and take lots of things for granted. We can easily forget how amazing it is that we are alife now. When we think of life in other planets, we forget how unlikely it is for a planet like earth to exist by pure chances. To get into launching a planet of just the right size around a sun of just the right size, during just the right moment in its evolution, just at the right distance from the sun, with a moon of just the right size orbiting just at the right distance from the earth.,...just to mension a few of the wonders.
  • So glad to hear that, Kelly:)

    Now, cosmologists are so much pedling the eternal inflation theory. Most Theories of inflation predict eternal inflation. Eternal inflation is interesting to cosmologists as it is the only way to solve the fine tunning puzzle without invorking God!

    Argument for God from fine tunning is very powerfull. It forces cosmologists to choose between 2; multiverse or God!

    However, a multiverse of inflation is more bizare than god! Our universe, together with its laws is not everything there is. We are situated in a tiny corner of unfathomable beast; megaverse. Our universe is but a tiny bubble in unfathomable ocean. But there can be as many universes as you can. With infinity, everything is possible. One such a univers would be a huge Boltzmann brain. One of them would be the heaven with God in it!! So cosmologists find Boltzmann brain idea problematic. Why struggle so much to do away with god only to wind up with another god? But there is no way round!!! If chances can form this univers out of endless possibilities, one such possibility is god himself!
  • Food for thought :-)  Thanks so much for posting this excellent data, Rama Pemba. 

  • One might say that light is energy in a stuff of criticaly lower density, it jets at a specific direction. Heat is the same same thing but trapped in a denser stuff such that it darts around in random directions. Light is like the gas escaping from a deflating baloon while heat is like the very same gas albeit trapped in a preasurised baloon.
  • I mean heat is solely in matter and light can escape to 'empty space'. However, quantum field theory, specifically Unruh effect, shows that there isn't much difference. Whether it is heat or light depends on your frame of riferance!!
  • Light differ from heat in that the latter is energy solely in 'matter' and the latter is energy that can propagate in 'empty space'. When the latter hit matter, it gets converted to heat and/or vibration of atoms and subatomic particles. Heat is not mere vibration either. It looks like what differentiat heat, light and 'mechanical vibration' is the medium that is doing the undulation.

    Can there be some other form of energy other than heat or mechanical vibration that can be converted to light? Energy from some other dimension? That would demand a revision of the first law of thermodynamics.;-)
  • The sun is a living being, yes....and Nassim thinks it is a stargate for he has pix of UFOs flying in and out of it....

    I´ve read that higher dimensional beings do live inside the sun...and it is also said that the earth will become a star when she ascends.  Perhaps the light from stars comes from a higher frequency rather than heat.

  • I found an article claiming that a Boltzmann brain has been discovered in Jupiter!! Well, yes, such gas giants as Jupiter, Saturn and even the sun are good candidates to search for Boltzmann brains. After all what would be the purpose of such gigantic bodies as Jupiter if not a home for Boltzmann brains?

    This idea is cool as it offers a new line of thinking when we search for ETs. When it comes to ETs, we often tend to think only of carbon based life. However, other forms of lifes and consciousnesses are also possible. Our sun might be full of ETs. ETs might just be in our noses!
